Note
Devil's Tower and Dinosaur National Monument are national monuments in the Rocky Mountains.
In northeastern Wyoming, Devil's Tower is a striking geological formation that rises 1,267 feet above the surrounding landscape. It was designated as the first national monument in the United States in 1906 and is notable for its unique, columnar structure and cultural significance to various Native American tribes. The monument attracts rock climbers, hikers, and nature enthusiasts who come to enjoy its breathtaking scenery and diverse wildlife. On the other hand, Dinosaur National Monument, straddling the border of Colorado and Utah, is famous for its rich fossil beds, particularly the impressive dinosaur bones discovered in the area. Visitors can explore scenic canyons, rivers, and engage in paleontological activities, making both monuments significant destinations for appreciating the natural and cultural history of the Rocky Mountain region.
